Out of all the new inventions now a days I would definitely have to say that the computer has had a great effect on all of us. The reason why I say this is because now pretty much everything is done on a computer like school work, grading, business jobs, etc. and for some reason it seems that without a computer nothing would be able to get done. Computers have been around for some time now, and I'm not sure what was used before they came out but I'
m pretty sure it was a typewriter. Typewriters are still used today but very few people use them because they're still not as advanced as the computer is. Computers are not only used for typing, they are also used for any type of research you might need to do for your job or school, they can be used for a form of communication, for any entertainment, and so on. It just makes everything seem much more easier to do.

From what I was told I learned that back then they didn't even have pens or pencils, and that their only writing utensil was a feather and some ink, so if they messed up they had to start over. For the people that were rewriting books I know it took them for ever to at least finish a simple sentence. When the Printing Press was invented I know those people were the happiest ever because they didn't have to spend all day writing some book. It was still some work that had to be done while using the Printing Press but it was way more easier then before and not only were they remaking one book they were able to make plenty books at a faster pace, now many people had books, they were probably being sold at a cheaper price, people were probably learning how to read and understand more things with their new invention.

I agree with Cristina on how the printing press changed a lot of people ways in learning back than. People were able to read things on their own and learn them, because their were more books publish thanks to the printing press.
Great details to defend this post. Yes, the typewriter was used before the computer :)
A couple small errors, but overall well written. 28/30 points
